Why stop reading aloud after kindergarden?

01

Empowering Young Minds -

Rediscovering the Magic of Reading Aloud for Girls

Reading aloud stories to young children has long since been an effective method of restoring calamity, encouraging connection, and reducing anxiety. However, after children learn to read, there is little emphasis on reading aloud to them. Many girls aged 11-13 list a book as their favourite ‘toy’. But for girls with anxiety, it can be difficult to enjoy the experience of reading when their minds are racing.

Reviving the power of reading aloud -

An Untapped Anxiety Reduction Tool for Tweens

Recent studies show that 1/3 of Ontario parents have had a child miss school due to anxiety and that 73% of teachers agree that anxiety disorders are a pressing concern. Children in the age 11-13 bracket are too old for the current story-time read aloud applications, but are also too young for adult and even teenage material. It is also important that the content in the read aloud is regulated, so as not to trigger even more serious anxiety symptoms.

Creating a Custom Read Aloud App -

Designed for Calm and Comfort

Cove is the solution - a read aloud app for 11-13 year-olds with anxiety that will provide them with the calming effects of meditation and the comfort of story-telling so as to reduce anxiety, improve emotional awareness and control, and allow girls to refocus and realign their mentality to encourage better concentration, focus and sleep.
